The time seems to fly by.
I managed to get the two felted bowls finished this week, and I also brought my Coast workbook up to date, but that's about it.

I went to the first meeting of the Foston Studio Art group on Wednesday. Organised by Rachel, it was a very enjoyable day, the first of many I hope.
I have started on a new technique, but based on Still Life rather than 'coast', although some pieces include coastal views. I have talked a little about it on my other blog lynneporterartmatters.blogspot.co.uk. It involves painting and collage on thin canvas, which I will then machine stitch, and add mark making with pencils and charcoal.
Trying out a new technique is by it's nature, a slow process, with many rejects. So I may not have anything to show by next Saturday, but we can but hope. The reason for these blogs is to encourage experimentation, without judgement, and I need to grab new ideas and go with them, even if it means leaving 'coast' for a while.
